Budget 2008
1. INTRODUCTION
In 2008, the largest share of the EU budget 45 % of all EU spending will go on measures to boost economic growth and greater cohesion in the EU-27. The move to spend
more on competitiveness reflects Europes commitment to prosper in a constantly evolving global economy, while ensuring stable support for farming. Agriculture will continue
to receive over 40 % of EU cash.
In global figures, budget 2008 amounts to EUR 129.1 billion in commitment appropriations. This is an increase of 2.2 % compared to 2007, and represents 1.03 % of Community GNI. It leaves a margin of EUR 3.7 billion under the ceiling of the financial framework. In payment appropriations, budget 2008 is set at EUR 120.3 billion, or 0.96 % of
GNI. This represents an increase of 5.7 % on 2007.
Of the EUR 58 billion which will go to boosting growth and employment by promoting
competitiveness and cohesion, EUR 11.1 billion is available for programmes aimed at
improving competitiveness, an increase of 18.3 % on 2007. This includes investment in
research, transport and energy networks, education and training, as well as GALILEO and
the EIT. The other EUR 46.9 billion will support structural and cohesion policy.
Financial support for the preservation and management of the Unions natural resources
remains fairly stable at EUR 55 billion, but with growing emphasis on environmental
policy (+ 12 %) and on rural development (+ 4.5 %).
The development of a European area of freedom, security and justice continues, with a
budget increase of 16.7 % compared to 2007. EUR 0.7 billion will be concentrated on fostering fundamental rights and justice, security and safeguarding liberties, and solidarity and
the management of migration flows.
In the field of citizenship, the 2008 budget amounts to EUR 0.6 billion, and includes
important increases for public health and consumer protection (+ 14.1 %), as well as supporting youth, culture and communication actions.
The budget for external actions increases by 7.3 % to EUR 7.3 billion. Within this heading, the Common Foreign and Security Policy grows by almost 80 %, to EUR 285.25 million, in particular, to cover operations in Kosovo. Importance increases are also included
for pre-accession programmes (+ 14 %) and for the EUs neighbourhood policy (+ 10.2 %).
The budget for administration grows by 4.4 % to EUR 7.3 billion. Since 2004, the number of Member States has increased from 15 to 27, which has had an important effect on
the workload and staffing requirements of the institutions.

As Bulgaria and Romania enter their second year of EU membership, budgetary compensation is gradually reduced to EUR 0,2 billion, as agreed during the accession negotiations.
This will ensure that both Member States will have a positive budgetary balance during the
first years after accession.
